    Notreal talks like theres a giant thorny log up his/her butt. It's unreal.



    Edit: And I gotta say, the air traffic bit in Asylum 4 had me cackling. That's always what I think of when I hit the BH area.

    I occasionally make ATC-tower quips when I'm hovering in that area. b:chuckle
    Not that I do so often, since the lag is awful, but it's generally the first thing to come to mind for me as well.

    " How does the Kitty Cat go? Meow? Very goooooood." LOL those are great! :3
    Sins are Scissors, Psychics are Rocks, and Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper ...and Clerics are Mushrooms.

    Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock ...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
    So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE.

    The sheer awesomeness of the Redeemer made my day. Thanks Keph, for reminding me of my favorite contemporary shooter. Oh, the days of lolwtfpwning a huge crowd of people with the Redeemer in hardcore multiplayer action. Remember that map that had a huge castle in space ? b:faint

    Although I have no snazzy screen to share yet, I wish to reassure you all that yes, this is still in progress.

    I estimate "The Showdown" to be about 50% complete (approximately 55s of 110 done).

    To do:
    -Ammend fight choreographing, fill in gaps.
    -Finish re-rigging imported snow-hare model, render new animation sequence.
    -Continue constructing/rendering pyrotechnic FX
    (avoid FumeFX plugin where possible, due to time-consuming pre-render "solution calculations")
    -???
    -Profit!
    -...then finish up the stupid end-credits sequence. Bottom of the list. Please god let that go quicker.
    In the meantime, have some epic.
    Fun fact: the amount of work going into this Showdown rivals anything I ever had planned for the cancelled 'imPerfect' film, effects-wise. Arguably, it was easier trying to coordinate large-scale "assaults" for the film.
    Oh, and Frankie? Why aren't you guys paying me for this yet? b:laugh

    New teaser image for the curious... though I'll wager it doesn't have the same visual flare as missiles streaking by.
    Even the Credits are interesting, for a change.

    Keep rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin...

    In the process of test-rendering the credits section, I discovered a problem - namely, that it wouldn't render.

    The end result was a replacement of all masked video in that segment with animated GIFs. Under any other circumstance, this would look trashy and ridiculous, but as the credits section is a Sonic 2 parody...
    Seems a shame to let these languish, so make whatever you like of them, though if you do use, thanks/credits for the work is appreciated, of course.
    Running

    ...Work continues...

    Yes, but you'll probably have to resize it. Original is 640x360 (lots of extra blank space, but helps keep things centered up and aligned properly for the Asylum vid)

    I know this is a necro and it's gonna get locked. That's fine. But I wanted to post and let everyone know that yes, months and months after its announcement (and a long hiatus during the holiday season), Asylum 5 will be uploaded before the end of this month. I have only one more scene in the "Bunny vs Wizard" sequence to edit, before calling it "done."



    Now for some bad news: It's not actually done, done.

    My original plan was an almost feature-length showdown, some 2+ minutes in length, to kind of "settle" their little war once and for all. Epic battle of spells and missiles and explosions, good stuff. And you'll get that - mostly.
    I've truncated the sequence and cut the second half from A5. The amount of CGI and post-processing work required was astronomically higher than I anticipated, and when I looked through the rest of the video, it just didn't seem to pull its weight. Rather than keep A5 on the blocks for another several months, I've "ended" that bit as... appropriately as I could for now, post the video, and conclude the sequence - probably as its own video - at a later time.

    I realize that anyone following this is probably going to feel a little trolled by the cliffhanger, but I'm confident in saying that even with half that sequence cut, Asylum 5 will be the best (and funniest) video yet.

    Thank you all for your patience :)

    A brief amendment:
    RENDERING IS IN PROGRESS!
    At long last, the fifth Asylum video will be posted today. ETA, approximately 4 hours (taking into account current rate of rendering + upload time).

    ...Guess that means I need to start A6 now, eh?

    8 months, thereabouts. Part of that was the holiday season getting in the way, but mostly I just burned out from the amount of additional CGI and editing work I needed for some scenes. +10 Respect for the professional animators who do this kind of stuff for a living - glad my ability to eat doesn't depend on it.
